Quick easy one night stay while driving through.

Staff was friendly. Room was just OK for staying overnight and leaving the next morning. It appeared clean. The parking was well lit and they had security cameras. I chose this hotel because the price was great and our cat was no extra charge. The website did not mention an animal deposit like all the other hotels did. I was surprised at check in that there was a deposit of $100 which I will be fully refunded in a couple of days. I think that should be on the hotels.com page.

SWEET COZY PET-FRIENDLY PLACE

We really enjoyed our stay here. We stayed for several weeks. We always felt very comfortable & safe the entire time. Staff was extremely friendly & very helpful. Other guest seemed happy with their stay as well. Our room was super roomy & very comfortable.This motel was extremely pet friendly with no extra pet fees. I would totally recommend this Motel 6 especially if you are traveling with pets.

Room currently occupied was an odd start

I arrived to check in to the room. The first room I was given was occupied. We actually woke a night nurse up from her sleep. I went to the desk to try again. This room was 'meh.' The bed was okay, but I can't describe it as comfortable. There were things like the sprinkler hanging out of a hole in the ceiling, the pillows were so flat, and the towels were smaller bath towels that felt like they've been around a long time. There were no amenities; the pool was closed. I'd probably choose a different hotel to stay in.

Bed was very comfortable. Spacious room. My biggest complaint was the chech-in process. Resvervation made through Expedia. I even received a call from the property confirming I made the reservation. Upon arrival I was informed that my credit card was declined. I explained that the reservation was paid through Expedia. He said I needed to pay with a different card. I used the same card that I used with Expedia. Now I got billed twice. I was told to wait for the charges to post against my credit card. If both charges get posted I am to call the Motel 6 to get a refund-very frustrating.

I've been staying at this hotel for 15 years. I come down fishing 4 times a year. Unfortunately, I have a bit of a problem with getting power to my boat. Motel 6 has outside electric outlets to charge my batteries in my boat. I was promised for the last 2 years they would be fixed. So far nothing. Other than that I'm ok.

Overall a decent, two-night stay. Reserved an upgraded king room with jacuzzi tub but the drain stop wouldn’t work so I couldn’t use it.
